As came the beauteous Greek unto the spring,
Wherein he cazed. and there entranced beheld
An image which his instant love compelled
A love true, strong, yet full of suffering -.
So we within dear eyes may, too, behold
That perfect other, who immutably o.
Shall typify our dreams ideally
OF all that highest virtue doth enfold.
The youth pined, languished for his love and died;
The waters of the stream were cold and chill;
And yet, alb! who can deem it ill
To die with ones loved image close besidel
'Twere best TO perish, believing, hoping on,
Than live TO find the Real, not tn Ideal one!

He has contracted to have 800 shade
trees set out, two in front OF each lot
The day after he bought the property
he sold Al lots at not less than 5000
each. A gentleman from Knoxville

Ingomar.

Jobe's Opera House was packed last
Monday night with one of the most
select audiences ever assembled
there to witness the first appearance
in this place of Americas talented ac-
tress, Miss Marie Prescott, in the ro-
manic drama, "lngomar." Miss Pres
colt came heralded by the press as a
great actress and fully sustained the
reputation she has gained and SO rich
ly deserves. 1t is universally pro-
nounced the best play and the finest
piece OF acting ever seen here and the
audience was held spellbound from be-
ginning end, except at intervals when
the applause was rapturous. Miss
Prescott is Kentuckian and is fair
type OF Southern beauty. She is finely
formed, has a melcdious voice and her
every movement is grace itself. AS
'Parthenia," the Greek maiden, she
completely captivated her hearers.
Her leading man, Mr.. R. u. Mclean,
is an actor OF extraordinary ability.
He has a commanding figure, fine
stage presence and a voice of great
power, and as "Ingomar" he is a splen.
did representation Of a strong and
honorable barbarian chief The play
is remarkably clean and is filed with
such a variety OF sentiment and emo
ton that it is a positive relief from the
usual order OF plays. There return to

New Real Estate OMce.

Last Thursday night Messrs. Frank
Baxter, Frank Gillian and Frank
Stratton, our enterprsing real estate
agents, contracted with Mr.. J. J.
Adams for the erection of three
story brick building 25x60 feet on the
corner OF the Piedmont House lot to be
used as aroal estate Office by the above
named firu.. Work was commenced
on the building Wednesday morning
and it isunder contract to be completed
by the fifteenth of January. The first
floor will be devoted exclusively to a
real estate Office. The second floor
will be used as a Office for surveyor
and draughtsman and the third floor
will be used by the officials OF the
Three C's. The building is to be
finished in modern style, plate glass
font &C., and will be the best exclu.
sive real estate Office building in the
State. This is big undertaking for
these young men and serves to show
their faith in Johnson City, As soon
as they get ready for work they will
have a complete map made of the
city and in addition to this will have a
large and perfect geological map made
of this section. both of which will be
displayed in their Office. The land
owners in this city and vicinity should
encourage these gentlemen by placing
their property in their hands. 1t is
to their advantage to do so as these
gentlemen will have every facility for
advertising their property,

There are a great many reasons
why the Democratic party should be
kept in power and not one good rea-
son why it should be turned out. The
country is in splendid condition.
Only last week Chauncy Depew, q
leading Republican in New York and
prospective candidate for the Presi-
dency said in speech before the
Chamber of Commerce; Never in
our history were we in such prosper
Gus condition and with our credit on
so stable basis. q Never before
in the history of the world has the av-
erage OF wages been SO high and the
purchasing power Of money so good
as in the United States to-day,
These good things have been
brought about under Democratic adj
ministration, and the question that APP
pears TO every thinking man is, had
we not best let well enough alone9
One OF the dangers TO the business in
telests of the country that would fol-
low a change OF administration, would

Another ocean steamer has been lost
in fog by collision and one hun
dred and thirty lives are reported as
lost. The old story OF such disasters
was repeated in the sinking of the w.
A. Scholten in the English Channel.
off Dover, Saturday night, and the
most heartrending scenes took place
in the twenty minutes that elapsed
between the collision and the final
plunge. At this season OF the year 1t
is a subject for wonder that even as
many as eighty persons should have
escaped, for the icy waters OF the
Channel would soon overcome even
The most hardy swimmer.
Apparently there was no gross neg.
ligence of precautions before the dis
aster, and the officers seem to have
done their duty afterward. Several OF
the boats were useless, but whether
that was due to their condition or to
the listing" OF the ship to port cannot
be determined from the dispatches
The Scholten was running at slow
speed, and the Rosa Mary, with which
she came in collision, was at anchor
The chief negligence consisted in
sending a steamer to sea at all con.
structed in defiance of what should be
deemed fundamental law OF safety

Mary White obtained judgment
for one thousand dollars against the
Knoxville Journal for an alleged IL
bel. The Journal claims that in the
original article the name was written
Mag White and that the mistake
was made by the printer. The mis-
take was unintentional and Judge
Logan probably did right in setting
aside the verdict and granting new
trial, But the point we want to make
is that the Journal has undertaken a
new and novel way to get rid of the
lawsuit, that OF attacking plaintiffs at.
torney with the view of driving him
from the case. This mode OF defense
is neither credi table or commendable.
and we think the excuse given by the
Joatrnal for the unseemly attack is al
together insufficient.
